Oven Temperature: 200ºC/400ºF/Gas 6
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Quantity: Makes 7x11" cake
I created this cake several years ago and haven't made it for ages. The ratios look a bit dodgy to me, but I'm keeping it here for now as I've had at least one email saying how lovely and light their cake turned out. If I were to make a vanilla cake now, I'd use the lemon cake recipe as I know that always turns out well, but using 2 tsp of vanilla extract in place of any lemony things.

1) Put flour, baking powder and sugar in a bowl and stir.
2) Add vanilla essence and vegetable oil.
3) Pour over the soya milk or water and beat with a wooden spoon.
4) Pour mixture into an oblong tin (7" x 11") and cook for about 25 minutes at 200ºC/400ºF until cooked.
